I have a hydraulic cylinder from a small scissor hoist that I want to rebuild. This cylinder has a different gland than what I am used to. Where you see the two long bolts, there were two short bolts that appeared to only go through the plate they were screwed into. The bolts appeared to be keeping the bolt holes clean. So I assumed if you put in longer bolts you could pull out the ring that covers the gland??? The perimeter is pretty rusty and is currently soaking with penetrating oil. Am I on the right track, or is this cylinder more complicated than I think?
